  Abstract

Phase modulation technique is that the phase information of signal varies proportionally with a modulated signal, which is commonly applied in the field of communications. The current processing method mainly uses the active devices to intercept, modulate and repeat, but the devices are complicated and require a certain processing time. In this paper, Phase modulation method based on phase-switched screen (PSS) is studied and the echo characteristics are analyzed. Meanwhile, the realization of PSS time-varying modulation is discussed. Simulation results are utilized to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
